Isn’t it so weird that if everyone in the NHS left work on time everyday, the whole thing would literally combust in weeks. – at Brent, London

NHS staff have not hesitated to look after those we love throughout this pandemic.
Through their own fear, their own grief, their own exhaustion, they stepped up and they carried on.
They are the best of public service, the best of us. Thank you NHS.

Why are women not offered pain relief for removal and insertion of IUDs? It can be AGONY. If it involves the prostate or the colon, you get sedatives, or gas and air. My column on how brutally the cervix is treated: thetimes.co.uk/article/288ac…

Something a colleague said to me today struck a huge chord. Simply ‘being kind’ is possibly one of the biggest influences that a leader can have on their team. Its not taught or a qualification. It’s just words. Kind words that make a huge difference every day

Thinking of all those awesome women who make up 77% of our NHS (but only 46% of very senior management roles). You’re amazing, your value is immense, and your time will come #IWD2021

Don’t ever tell me it’s too cold for iced coffee, I’m a nurse in a pandemic , homeostasis has no home here.

For every one patient on ICU - there are likely ~ten(+) more on wards being diligently cared for by medical teams who are just as stretched & just as pressured
If not more so
Right now, you don’t often see those teams on the news.
They exist.
And they are mighty.

Merry Christmas to all my heroes this year! Those nurses fighting the fire on the wards, you guys truly are the meaning of Christmas. Leaving your homes and families to spend looking after our patients! Love our NHS 🥰 @NurseMidwifeMK @mkuh

It’s ok not to be ok...
Just a thought, wanted to share,
We are all going through a tough time and some of feel that we have to be heroes and be strong..
Sometimes it’s ok for us to feel vulnerable, sad, emotional, fragile, that does not represent weakness but it shows humanity❤️

Yet again the language in this article is challenging. 'Crack down', 'target' - we do not need more regulation we need support, we need sensitivity, we need understanding, we need to be listened. We are doing our best.
New @hsib_org report also highlights impact on NHS staff from Covid including one NHS worker attempting suicide.
We must not underestimate what we have asked of our nation's carers this past 8 months

Today I started my shift with a patient singing Elvis Presley and I dancing along! What a lovely start, completely lifted our mood. This is why I love nursing and interacting with patients 🤗 @MKHospital
